Splunk is not an IT experiment anymore – it’s a mission critical application. Thousands of organizations are gaining insight from their machine data and
transaction logs using Splunk. One of the greatest risks to any enterprise-
level deployment of Splunk is inadequate, under-sized, or non-performant
hardware. Organizations frequently try to repurpose existing – and often
aging – hardware for Splunk deployments. In most cases the hardware
only meets Splunk’s minimum specifications for IOPS and compute sizing.
The result can be an under-performant or non-performant Splunk solution,
leading to poor performance and unmet expectations.This session will detail how you can get get the most out of your Splunk environment using modern All Flash infrastructure, ensuring you maximize performance and efficiency.

We will also show a quick demo of the new Pure1 Meta Workload Planner, the first application of Workload DNA.

Join IDC research analyst, Eric Burgener, and Sandeep Singh from Pure Storage to learn more about the emergence of flash-optimized tier 1 enterprise storage platforms. These platforms marry the rich multi-tenant management capabilities of legacy tier 1 arrays with the features necessary to succeed in the cloud era – performant, in-line data reduction, autonomous (self-driven) storage management, an ability to extensively integrate with pre-existing datacenter workflows and with cloud – in an open, NVMe-based platform that can evolve and enhance non-disruptively and without data migrations.

Join IDC Research Directors Dr. Alan Louie and Eric Burgener for an informative session as they discuss the life sciences research landscape and its key processes and requirements.
They will share information about how today's data-intensive genomics workflows require high throughput and bandwidth to handle massive data sets in near real-time. Joined by Brian Schwarz from Pure Storage, he will take a technical deep dive into how a purpose-built "big data flash" scale-out NAS (network attached storage) platform like FlashBlade can help research teams accelerate time to discovery.

Join us for this informative session where health IT, life sciences research, biotech, data and storage interest at the IT crossroad.

Most industry analysts agree that big data warehouses, built on a relational database, will continue to be the primary analytic database for storing much of the company’s core transactional data. These data warehouses will be augmented by big data systems. Even though this new information architecture consists of multiple physical data repositories and formats, the logical architecture is a single integrated data platform, spanning the relational data warehouse and the data lake.

Join the discussion to find out more about how high performance, high density all-flash storage can help.

Many organizations are looking to virtual desktops and apps to improve productivity, security, and control — but building infrastructure for large-scale Citrix XenDesktop and XenApp deployments can be challenging. While some infrastructure approaches are limited in reliability or ability to scale, this session will present a highly performant, highly available and easy to manage approach to Citrix XenDesktop and XenApp deployments with the FlashStack Converged Infrastructure from Cisco and Pure Storage. In this session, Cisco and Pure Storage VDI solution architects will share test results of a recent Cisco Validated Design for FlashStack with XenDesktop and XenApp for 5000 users. Specifically discussed is how real world users can quickly deploy Citrix virtual apps and desktops, scale performance with user demand, and keep costs low through a repeatable, reliable converged infrastructure approach to VDI. This is also the first FlashStack CVD using Windows® 10 64-bit and Office® 2016 as the base OS desktop and Office Suite, respectively, proving that FlashStack delivers the horsepower needed to power the latest innovations from Microsoft.

In this webinar, you will learn how to:

Successfully deploy Citrix XenDesktop and XenApp at scale faster to support high-productivity user workspaces
Leverage the power of Cisco UCS stateless computing to deploy your network, storage and compute faster and more consistently than any other platform on the market
Leverage FlashStack to complement Citrix by keeping virtual desktops and apps online and high-performing with minimal admin effort

Are you considering converged infrastructure, but unsure how it can be protected? Look no further. Cisco has just released an end-to- end, Cisco Validated Design (CVD), leveraging Commvault Data Protection. FlashStack now offers industry-leading Commvault data protection running on UCS Servers, for protection of all FlashStack supported applications.

This webinar discusses how advances in all-flash storage technology can help improve the acceleration of Electronic Design Automation (EDA) and high performance workloads. It highlights current issues with storage bottlenecks in these environments and its impact on productivity. And then it covers a quick overview of FlashBlade, a revolutionary new storage system for high performance and high concurrency workloads that will drive tomorrow's next generation chip designs.

In the age of applications where design, simulation, visualization and interpretation can all be performed digitally on high-powered servers and networks, eliminating the big data storage bottleneck has become imperative for high performance computing users.

What’s needed is a new, innovative storage architecture to support advanced applications while providing best-of-breed performance in all dimensions of concurrency – including IOPS, throughput, latency, and capacity – while offering breakthrough levels of density. A flash storage solution with an elastic scale-out system can deliver all-flash performance to petabyte-scale data sets, ideal for big data analytics.
